The reply of Mr.. Chamberlayne, owner of
the English yacht Arrow, to the owner of
the Mayfower probably puts ain end to the
prospect that the latter boat will 60 to Eng
land to contest for the Queens cup. 1t was
last year that Mr.. Chamberlyne issued
challenge to the owners Of American sloops,
stating that he would offer the Queens cup,
won by the Arrow in 1852, as a challenge
trophy for international racing. General
Paine accepted this challenge about five
weeks ago, and was fully expecting to race
in England until three weeks ago, when he
received notice from the Englishman that
in the races the centreboard of the Mayfow-
er must be bolted so that the free use Of it
might be prevented. The reply was at once
made that such condition was inadmissa-
BILE; but Cbamberlayne insisted that the
Mayflower should not be allowed the unre-
strained use of her centreboard. This of
course ended the negotiations. The English
man, who sails deep and narrow yacht
without centreboard, seems to think that
to make the race fair the Mayhower should
forego the use of her centreboard also. But
the Mayhower belongs to very different
type Of yacht from that of the Arrow. To
flower to keep her centreboard bolted up,
because English yachts have no centreboards
is no fairer than it would be to stipulate that
the Arrow should have her sides built out
because American yachts do not have mar
row beam. The Englishman does not care
to risk the Queens cup until he makes it toll
erably certain that he shall not lose it.
A day or two ago the PRESS alluded to the
attempt of the employees of the Gardiner
shoe factory to crowd out Miss Nellie New
ell, a stitcher in the establishment, because
she would not join the Knights of Labor or
pay an assessment levied on her by that or
ganization. We regret to say that the at
tempt has succeeded through what appears
To be cowardice on the part of the manage
ment of the concern. We find in the Gardi-
ner Journal the following particulars Of the
performance as related by the Knights of
Labor themselves, who, no doubt, have
placed it in as favorable light as possible:

Lord saIIspury,s Proposition,

A despatch from Washington announces
that Lord Salisbury, on behalf of the British
government, has offered to return the Hall
fax award of $5,5Oo,000, and revert to the
old condition of things under the Treaty of
Washington. We don't know how this offer
will strike the administration, but it is certain
that it will strike the parties most deeply IN
terested in the fishery dispute, namely, the
American fishermen, unfavorably. The
Treaty of Washington conceded to our fish
ermen the privilege of fishing along the
Dominion shores inside the three-mile limit
and to the Canadian fishermen the priv.
lege of sending their fish into our markets
free of duty. A very few years of this ar
rangement convinced our fishermen that
they had by far the worst end of the bar
gain. The privilege of fishing inside the
three-mile limit turned out to be of very lit.
tie value to the Americans, while the privi-
proved perfect bonanza to the Canadians.
Their fishery industry fiourished as never
before, while ours languished and would
have died had not the treaty been abro
gated. Lord Salisbury offers S5,500,000 OF
money, every cent of which in equity be
longs to us already, if we will go back tt
this arrangement. American fishermen will
never consent to make such a trade
as that. 1t would prove their ruin. They
don't want the Canadians fish. All they
ask for is the same commercial privileges il
Dominion ports that are freely accorded
Canadian fishermen in American ports.
The Portland daily press., 1887-04-21

an assessment of 80 cents upon the men, and %
cents upon the women, was made few weeks
ago. There was one employe, Miss Nellie New
ell, who did not belong to the order and who de-
clined to have anything to do with any labor or
ganlzatlon, and would not pay anything to help
sustain II. As the rest of the shops crew had
PAID their money TO help sustain the prices which
she was receiving the benefit of, and as if she did
not pay there would be others who would not,
they were obliged in self-defense to ask the hrm
TO discharge her. This the firm declined TO DO,
ana after giving notice that they would 40 So eit
the work.as above stated. They say that although
Miss Newell had been asked TO join the hnlghlS
OF Labor, 1t was not insisted upon, anu II she hau
only contributed the small amount asked ror as
wages she was receiving, 1t would have been an
right. But she would not do SO. and hence the
crew would net work with her.
Boiled down the case amounts to just this:
the majority of the employees of the Gardi-
ner shoe factory combined together to extort
% cents from one of their number to so into
a fund to support 'shop committee" to reg
ulate the relations between the management
of this factory and its employees, but not be-
ing able to accomplish this they appealed to
the management to discharge the girl, threat
ening if their demand was not complied with
that they would strike and thus compel the
stoppage of work. They said practically to the
management that nobody should be employed
in the concern who would not pay tribute to
them. And the management was too cow
ardly to resist their outrageous demand, but
weakly yielded and discharged the girl. The
management ought to be ashamed of itselfs
And the knights of Labor ought to be
ashamed of themselves

In p. I. Barnum's suit against the Grand
Trunk railway for the killing of Jumbo the
defence have brought in throng of wit
nesses from Canada to prove that Jumbo
came to his death from "contributory neg
ligence," because he could not be made to
get off the track when the train backed
towards him. The generally accepted ac-
count of the affair represents that the valiant
old beast, regarding the approach of the
train as a challenge to combat preferrde to

AT Sault Ste Marie is the outlet of the
great Lake Superior to the lower lakes, HUI
ron, Michigan and Erie. Rapids, which de-
scend twenty-five feet in less than mile,
render the navigation of the straits by steam
boats impossible. But on the American side
of the straits a canal has been cut so that
the vessels Of both the United States and
Canada may go to and fro bearing the great
frelghts which are carried from lake to lake.
In the competition of the water route with
the railways Northwestern trade this canal
bears an important part. The closing of
this canal absolutely would be blow at the
commerce of both the United States and
Canada the denial Of its privilege to either
country would be great deprivation. Just
now, in spite of the fact that the Dominion
government has to face deficit of six mil
lion dollars in its revenues, it is talking of
building a new canal on the Canadian side
of the strait, to provide against "the posi-
BILE interruption of the navigation of our
great inland waters" Among the Canadi-
ans, on whom the prospect that President
Cleveland will enforce the Retaliatory Act
is exciting far more anxiety than is mani
Tested on this side of the line, this PROPOSE !
ton to build canal which is not demanded
by the needs Of commerce, is exciting the
livliest curiosity. Many of them believe
that their government is preparing itself for
those severe retaliatory measures which
President Cleveland has promised in case he
uses the powers entrusted to him.

The suggestion made by prominent law
yer that under the strict letter of the new
liquor law no judge is compelled to sentence
to Imprisonment for first offence in case of
clearinghouse and tipping shop and COM
mon seller is perhaps well founded. But the
intention of the law clearly is that persons
convicted of either of these offences
shall be sent to jail and none of the
judges we now have in Maine will disregard
it. The man who keeps drinking shop or
isa common seller of Intoxicating liquors can
set it down as certain that if he is caught and
convicted he will be sent to Jail.

The principal reason now given to excuse
Deputy Collector Murphy from testifying in
the State courts is that If he should answer
the summonses of these courts he would
have no time to attend to his official duties.
That, however, is an after thought. The
reasons originally given were that his rec
ords were private and that such testimony
would be against public policy inasmuch as
it would tend to decrease the revenue. This
new reason appeared first when the habeas
corpus proceedings were had before Judge
Webb, after District Attorney Bird had come
into the case. Probably the District Attorney
seeing that their original reasons were pref
ty thin set the officials to thinking up others,
and they thought of this one. The reason is
doubtless being used for all 1t is worth and
probably good deal more.

The result of the trial of John Arensdorf
for the murder of Rev. George G. Haddock,
in Sioux City, Iowa, must be regarded as an
outrage upon law and justice. The evidence
was very conclusive that Mr.. Haddock, who
was noted and active temperance worker,
was assassinated on account of his success
full. efforts in prosecuting saloon keepers,
and that the acquittal of the prisoner was
secured by packing the jury. 1t was an ex-
traordinary case, but the facts seem to be in
disputable.

The Massachusetts Democrats are well
pleased at the appointment of Sigourney
Butler as second comptroller Of the treasaiy
and Edward A. Mosely as secretary of the
interstate commerce commission. Both are
Democrats untincture1 With Mugwumpery.
By no means the smallest satisfaction the
Massachusetts Democracy derive from their
selection comes from the fact that they hope
1t f0reshadows for the future less attention
On the part of the administration to the Mug
wumps and more to the Jacksonians. Mr.
Mosely appears to be personally an excellent
gentleman, but he has no special knowledge
of railroad operations, and therefore will not
supply the great deficiency of the commits
sion, which is a want of practical knowledge
of the subject matter it has to deal with.
